Explores the wartime experience of rural Australians during World War I, focusing on the country towns and hamlets of north-eastern Victoria. Demonstrates how the experience of the war was dramatically localised in rural areas, as its every aspect was shaped by individual journalists, councillors or leading local citizens. Details the impact of this intimacy on German inhabitants, who were known as trusted neighbours in rural communities, though reviled as 'the enemy' in the cities. Includes photographs, tables, notes, bibliography and index. Author is head of the history and politics program at the University of Wollongong.
